by leave—I advise the Senate that the motion was standing in my name also, but I am withdrawing my association with it. I would have preferred to defer consideration of this motion to get agreement across parties on the important and substantive issues of this motion. It has not been possible to get agreement with Senator Joyce on postponing the motion to have discussions on the terms of reference and I prefer that the motion does not proceed under these circumstances.
